Ashland is a warm community with a vibrant downtown, known for welcoming residents and visitors alike with a large sign that says, “World Headquarters of Nice People.” Founded in 1815, the town was renamed to “Ashland” in 1822 by supporters of Henry Clay, a U.S. Senator with roots in Ashland, an estate now recognized as a National Historic Landmark in Lexington, Kentucky.
At the Heritage Cremation & Burial Society, we seek to honor Ashland’s “nice people”, small-town charm and rich heritage with the area’s highest quality cremation services and exceptional, compassionate customer care.
